9. USE OF COOKIES; USER SESSION INFORMATION

The DJ Shinski Website may use "cookies", activity tracking, and other personalized features to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your device by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize DJ Shinski pages or register with the DJ Shinski site, a cookie helps DJ Shinski to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information. When you return to the same DJ Shinski Website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the DJ Shinski features that you customized. Generally speaking, cookies do not contain personal information from which you can be identified, unless you have furnished such information to the Website.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the DJ Shinski Services or Websites you visit.

User session information, including identification and length (a randomly generated identification created for each time you use the Website, and the amount of time you use the Website, in a single session), helps DJ Shinski to manage subscriptions and deliver customized content based on User-specific information. DJ Shinski may use this information in aggregated form in order to improve future development of the Website.

10. SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

DJ Shinski secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure by restricting the same to management-level access, utilizing secure sockets layers (SSL), and encrypting your data.

We strive to take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or alteration of your personal information. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, you acknowledge that: (a) there are security and privacy limitations inherent to the Internet which are beyond our control; and (b) security, integrity, and privacy of any and all information and data exchanged between you and us through this Site cannot be guaranteed. Please note that non-encrypted communication using email is not secure. Thus, we cannot guarantee data security in email communication.

11. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER

We offer a US-based service. Thus, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States. The United States, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area ("EEA") Member States, Switzerland, Brazil, and other countries all have different privacy and cybersecurity laws. When your information is moved from your home country to another country, the laws and rules that protect your personal information in the country to which your information is transferred may be different from those in the country in which you live.

12. CHILDREN UNDER THIRTEEN; NOTICE TO MINORS

DJ Shinski does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of thirteen. If you are under the age of thirteen, you must ask your parent or guardian for permission to use the Website and Services. We request that all users of the Website and our Services who are under the age of thirteen not disclose or provide any personally-identifiable information. If we discover that a child under thirteen has provided us with personally-identifiable information, we will delete that child's personally-identifiable information from our records. You are responsible for any and all account activity conducted by a minor under your account.

In addition to protecting the privacy of children under age thirteen we are committed to protect the privacy of minors. Though neither our Website nor our Services is targeted to minors nor is it intended to be used by minors, if, for any reason a minor has shared information via our Website and/or Services said minor may request and obtain removal of such information by contacting us at hi@djshinski.com or by deleting his or her account. Although we offer deletion capability, you should be aware that the deletion of an account may not ensure complete or comprehensive removal of information provided.

13. DO NOT TRACK DISCLOSURE

Please note that while you may have the opportunity to opt-out of targeted advertising and you may be able to control the use of cookies through your Web browser, some Web browsers may also give you the ability to enable a "do not track" setting. This setting sends a special signal to the Websites you encounter while Web browsing. This "do not track" signal is different from disabling certain forms of tracking by declining cookies in your browser settings, as browsers with the "do not track" setting enabled still have the ability to accept cookies. We do not respond to Web browser "do not track" signals at this time. If we do so in the future, we will describe how we do so in this Privacy Policy. For more information about "do not track", visit http://www.allaboutdnt.org/.

14. RETENTION

DJ Shinski will retain your information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this policy, for as long as your account is active (i.e., for the lifetime of your DJ Shinski account), as described in this policy, or as needed to provide the Services to you. If you no longer want DJ Shinski to use your information to provide the Services to you, you may close your account. DJ Shinski will retain and use your information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your information to comply with applicable tax/revenue laws), resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and as otherwise described in this policy. We also retain log files for internal analysis purposes. These log files are generally retained for a brief period of time, except in cases where they are used for site safety and security, to improve site functionality, or we are legally obligated to retain them for longer time periods.

15. E-MAIL COMMUNICATIONS; HOW TO OPT-OUT

It is DJ Shinski's policy not to send unsolicited emails or allow third parties to contact you via the email address that you provide to DJ Shinski.

You can control what information we send you via your account settings (log in required), and may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time.

DJ Shinski may, from time to time, contact you to discuss matters relevant to your account and, naturally, DJ Shinski will contact you to respond to inquiries that you may send to DJ Shinski.

In addition, from time to time, DJ Shinski may contact you via email for the purpose of providing announcements, promotional offers, alerts, confirmations, surveys, and/or other general communication related to new mix releases, foundation updates, merchandise drops, recommendations, live events, and DJ news.

Please note that our marketing and promotional communications are opt-in. This means that we will only send you such communications if you request them or based on your notification preferences. If you would like to stop receiving marketing or promotional communications via email from DJ Shinski, you may opt out of such communications by clicking on the UNSUBSCRIBE link or by adjusting your notification preferences in your account settings.

Email marketing campaigns published by us may contain tracking facilities within the actual email. Subscriber activity is tracked and stored in a database for future analysis and evaluation. Such tracked activity may include but shall not be limited to: the opening of emails, forwarding of emails, the clicking of links within the email content, times, dates and frequency of activity. This information is used to refine future email campaigns and supply the User with more relevant content based around their activity.

16. YOUR RIGHTS

You may benefit from a number of rights in relation to your information that we process. Some rights apply only in certain limited cases, depending on your location. If you would like to manage, change, limit, or delete your personal information, you can do so via your account settings or by contacting us. Upon request, DJ Shinski will provide you with information about whether we hold any of your personal information. By visiting your account settings, you can access, correct, change, and delete certain personal information associated with your account. In certain cases where we process your information, you may also have a right to restrict or limit the ways in which we use your personal information. In certain circumstances, you also have the right to request the deletion of your personal information, and to obtain a copy of your personal information in an easily accessible format. If you need further assistance, you can contact DJ Shinski at hi@djshinski.com. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.

If we process your information based on our legitimate interests as explained above, or in the public interest, you can object to this processing in certain circumstances. In such cases, we will cease processing your information unless we have compelling legitimate grounds to continue processing or where it is needed for legal reasons. Where we use your data for direct marketing purposes, you can always object using the unsubscribe link in such communications or changing your account settings.
